The integration by Beckman Coulter Inc. of their Vi-CELL XR Cell Viability Analyzer with their Biomek Laboratory Automation Workstations and other devices enables real-time cellular imaging in a walk-away system for cell culture settings. Integrated automation adds flexibility to the application of the instrument, from basic cellular research through drug development and scale-up. The Vi-CELL XR (extended range) measures the viability of cells and counts them in minutes, using the widely accepted Trypan Blue cell viability tissue culture protocol. The automated, integrated solution monitors cell growth over time.
